LaHood will not seek re-election

By Jim Tankersley

Rep. Ray LaHood (R-Ill.) will announce Friday that he will retire at the end of this term, removing one of the most outspoken, aisle-crossing congressmen from Capitol Hill.

LaHood, a 30-year political veteran first elected to the House in 2004, said the time has come to spend more quality time with his grandchildren.

"I'm going back to a normal life with my family," he said in a telephone interview this evening.
Watch The Swamp for more news on LaHood's decision later this evening.
